Aperitivo Cafe — Restaurant in Gold Coast City

I deleted a previous review which outlined THREE seperate occasions I visited this cafe and was sorely disappointed and regretful of ever stepping foot in there. The food was terrible and prices exorbitant for what it was. However, I removed the review because I didn't want it to damage the business, I just wanted to make the owners aware.

Since then I visited a FOURTH time- however I waited 20 minutes, only to find the order had been lost. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT 2 COFFEES HERE.

I must have amnesia, because 6 months later I visited again- I thought a coffee would be hard screw up. Boy, was I wrong.

Owners, and barista when someone orders a coffee with almond. They want a coffee with almond, not full cream. I know accidents happen, and even more so when you are busy. However, I was the only one waiting for coffee!!

This place is beyond second, third, fourth, now FIFTH CHANCES! Get it together. NEVER EVER AGAIN. Leaving this review here to remind myself and others you really are playing truth or dare when you...

A small but interesting little cafe and panini bar in Currumbin. Their menu is small but powerful, with most panini, arancini and pizza feeling almost like high quality homemade food. Just simple, good quality ingredients making a great bite every single time.

I had the mortazza panini and it was delicious. Their mushroom pizza was outstanding with the provolone and the Parmesan bring the flavors all together.

Their arancine were a bit disappointing. They are traditional arancine - so big, bulky and full of flavor. I recommend the truffle one. The rissotto for the traditional arancine was undercooked.

Their counter service and coffee service is fast, but kitchen items take a long time. I can’t imagine how slow it might be during busy days.

Overall, it’s a great cafe and I...

Had a quick takeaway stop at Aperitivo and wow…we were seriously impressed. We grabbed the prosciutto panino and the truffle arancini ball, and both were incredible!! The sandwich was delishhhh - packed with flavour and just the right amount of everything. The arancini was super tasty too, rich and flavourful without being too much. We waited inside while it was being made and the vibe was great, bustling but not chaotic, with a pretty quite street setting. Definitely keen to come back...
